I know a guy who just went to Tufts and it seemed as if every other sentence out of his mouth was, "Tuft is top 5 dental school." He was an out of towner so pardon the gramatical errors. I'm not poking fun its just that I now have it burned into my brain because I heard it 10 times a day.

Is this true though? If it is then who ranks Dental Schools. The only thing that I could think of would be board scores. Is there a site that posts these scores?

Yes, I too witnessed this student remind us every day how Tufts was a top 5 school. In fact, if you are currentlly a D1 at Tufts, I would encourage you to avoid this person at all costs. He or she is the biggest gunner you will ever come accross. PM me or Le Forte guy and we will provide you with his or her name if you want to know who the person is. I'm not trying to slander the person; we are trying to protect you. This person will stalk you if he or she gets to know you. Furthermore, this person never did his or her own work. He or she would skip class on a daily basis, and then ask for you class notes. And if you should have the misfortune of being in a group with this person, ask for a new partner. This person will not lift a finger to help you. This person is a total mooch.

Ranking was done based on research funding back in 1990's.

Utterly and completely idiotic website. A 100% waste of time. I've seen that link many times, but I'm now dumber for viewing it again.

No rip on you, Vishal, just on the content of that link.

Once again, stupid.
 
My point exactly.

Plus, people who truly care about "rankings" should be smart enough to disregard something that is well over a decade old (and was FUNDED by certain dental schools).

Rankings play no part in dentistry whatsoever.
 
Yeah I didn't think that Dental Schools were ranked but I wasn't sure.
 
i have seen some ranking
but does it matter?
each dental school will provide enough to get us to pass the license exam.
if we get thru that stage, not that many patients care if you graduate from this sch or the other, right?
 
The only ranking that I think matters is board exam pass rates. Just my opinion.
